I live on the coast and my son,wife and two your old little girl live in London. As I only work part-time I can go up for long weekends and for holidays with them. In between that I talk on the phone and skype [what a wonderful invention] . I know how lucky I am. My mother didn't see her own mother for 7 years as my father was in the forces and we travelled the world. However, my grandparents wrote us letters and sent presents - Mum talked about them constantly. So by the time we met them again, I was then 9 years old and my brother 6 years old [he'd never met them being born abroad]. We 'knew' them when we met again, we loved them right away and our relationship never changed - despite even more travelling and separations. So as long as you keep in contatct you will never lose her.
